A beautiful display of love, loyalty, and lifelong Paulinian spirit took center stage at the St. Paul University Dumaguete Alumni Homecoming 2026! In celebration of their milestone years, our beloved alumni—the High School Class of 1966 Diamond Jubilarians, the HS Class of 1976 Golden Jubilarians, and the HS Class of 1986 Ruby Anniversarians—moved the entire community with their inspiring generosity. Through substantial cash donations, these exemplary batches are directly supporting the restoration of the iconic Fleur de Liz Hall (FDL) and funding various university projects alongside vital scholarship grants for deserving Paulinians.

Spanning decades of history, these three incredible classes have proven that the Paulinian spirit of Caritas only grows stronger with time. Their meaningful contributions will help breathe new life into FDL—a place that holds so many of our shared memories—while ensuring that bright, determined students can pursue their dreams through education without financial barriers. They are not just looking back at their cherished past; they are actively building a stronger, brighter tomorrow for the next generation of leaders.

By coming together to support these initiatives, our homecoming alumni are proudly helping the university advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Their generosity directly champions SDG 4 (Quality Education) by expanding access to learning opportunities through scholarships, and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) by preserving and restoring FDL Hall, safeguarding our community's rich cultural and institutional heritage.

To our dear Diamond Jubilarians, Golden Jubilarians, and Ruby Anniversarians, thank you for your unwavering commitment to your Alma Mater. Your kindness reminds us all that once a Paulinian, always a Paulinian—bound by a shared mission to serve, uplift, and give back. Welcome home, and thank you for being the wind beneath our students' wings!
